Partake with Janette Terrazas in a lecture following her studies in textile objects as social metaphors. The lecture will take place in the El Paso Energy Auditorium inside EPMA on Thursday, February 10, 2022.
Janette uses electrosensitive materials, digital textiles, and natural prints to reflect on the violence phenomenon, environmental racism, earth democracy, and ecofeminism as interconnected elements in the border geopolitical context.
Janette studied graphic design at Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara. In 2006, she participated in an art residency at the IFCA, Yokohama, Japan. Since 2010, she has focused her career on textiles and has developed and participated actively at the Atea center for the investigation and promotion of sustainable development in Mexico City. Additionally, in 2015 she studied weaving techniques at the Textile Arts Center in Brooklyn, NY.
